How to extract Cloudera Hadoop VM archive

Question

I am new to Cloudera. I have worked on hadoop previously, now I want to try Cloudera Hadoop. For this I started with Cloudera Hadoop VM.

The downloaded the file in a 7zip format with 2GB size. When I try to extract, it shows error.

Can not open file cloudera-quickstart-vm-4.4.0-1-vmware.7z as archive.

All other files are extracting properly but this single file is not extracting. I have downloaded the file three times but got the same error. Is there any specific way to extract this file?

Answer 1

If you are Windows, you need to have WinRar installed. And then you can directly extract the file.

Let me know if this helps you.
